A Latino GOP Member Announced He Would Defend Sheriff Arpaio on TV. It Didn’t Go Well for Him.

August 24th, 2017

Sergio Arellano is a Latino activist in southern Arizona… for the GOP. After serving in the armed forces as a teen and starting an international car shipping business between the US and Mexico, he dedicates himself to getting out the vote for Republicans. That includes the current President who is seeking to build a wall between those two countries.

Here he is speaking to Al Jazeera about why we need a wall.

So this past week after Phoenix police tear gassed protesters outside Trump’s klan rally campaign rally in Phoenix where he hinted that he’d be pardoning the convicted Sheriff Arpaio, it’s only natural that Arellano would be the party’s pick to go on Telemundo to defend the President and the Sheriff. (He’s probably the only GOP member who speaks Spanish in Arizona).

The aspiring political operative tweeted out an announcement that he’d be on the show later that day, that’s probably the last thing that went well for him.
